CENTRE-FIXED LISTS Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G06F3/14 

FIELD: information technologies.

SUBSTANCE: user may select the main category (of filtration), including the aggregated category "all" and may introduce additional filtration criteria, in order to narrow down search results. Representations are displayed (for instance, images) of data elements, including representation of one data element in a fixed (for instance, centred) selection position. Scrolling between elements is carried out by means of displacement of data element representations relative to the fixed selection position. Scrolling may be substantially horizontal or vertical, and representation of an element in the selection position may be identified relative to other representations of elements, such as, for instance, via its relative size, opacity and/or colour. Metadata may also be displayed in connection with presentation of a data element in the fixed selection position.

EFFECT: expansion of functional capabilities of access to data, increased convenience and speed of finding of necessary data elements by a user.
